It's a great movie and I'm loving all the references to it in these comments … but Persepolis was a French film.

True story: Saddam Hussein was officially given the key to the city of Detroit in gratitude for his charitable donations (to restore Catholic churches!).

Look, this is nobody's business but the Turks.

Black Jesus ftw

The "ooh!" at the hot fudge shower is a little creepy … and it's the "saving money is better than not saving money" message anti-capitalist?

"I wish I was back as a human"

I assumed the twist would be that the sister did it.

You mean they'd still be running the good, early episodes of King of the Hill.

There's an entire blog called "XKCD sucks" that analyzes in excruciating detail why the author thinks that every single XKCD comic sucks. Make of that what you will.
